Goffin and King wrote the song after discovering that singer Little Eva was being regularly beaten by her boyfriend. When they inquired why she tolerated such treatment, Eva replied, with complete sincerity, that her boyfriend's actions were motivated by his love for her.
@TheTrippybutterfly Courtney Love's band, Hole, played a cover of the song as part of their MTV Unplugged performance. Love introduced the song by saying "This is a really sick song. It's one of those Spector songs and it was written by Carole King, which...you have to think." (King didn't, however, write the lyrics—her husband Gerry Goffin did.)

why do u keep reserching on Courtney Love u fucking freak.get a life and most of all get over it!!! Courtney has problems yes. Talentless NO. I could go on but better things 2 do.If u dont like her stop thinking about her and writing ur pathetic comments about her , u don't know her and you wouldnt slate A normal person in ur sociaty for having these problems, bi polar etc etc, so y bcause she is famous u think u have the wright 2 slag some1 u dont know.
Why are u on a page showing a completly diffrent band saying rip kurt. get over it. isnt ther a courtney love hate page for u 2 be wasting ur time on. if u actually got ur facts right ud see hole wer becoming huge before she's even met Kurt or can u jealous fools not handle the truth. Im sure if u ever met Kurt he'd give u a good slap in the face for disrespecting his widow and im sure u wouldnt have the guts for all the money in the world 2 say that 2 her as she'd put u down like rodney king!!!
um, yeah okay sexualxx1, i'm sure kurt would be real f'ing proud of courtney. just had their daughter taken away for the second time since 2003. last time she was taken away cuz she watched courtney overdose and had to call 911. i stand by my statements, courtney is nothing but a no talent, classless skank
Why are u coming on a page showing courtney loves ( HOLES ) music and putting rip kurt . Grow up. Aint there a courtney love hate page for u 2 be wasting ure time on
He hit me and I knew he loved me, Cuz if he didn’t care for me, I could have never made him mad, He hit me and I was glad....fucking great. so true.

She smokes so sexily. I love the way she puts her leg up at the beginning. She's such a beautiful creature.
